Tafawa was part Fulani.

The three Fulani presidents were elected, confirming my point of Fulani domination of the Northern Nigeria political landscape. Can you name me one ethnic Hausa president, Emir, Sultan or Governor?

I just do not agree it is their fault. Consider Buhari, he contested elections four times before he was able to win. Why do we want to blame such person for dominating?

Take for example. Why is it that Christian's in the North don't make serious effort like this to run for election? Abi they can not lobby and cajole Christian's in the south?

The problem is people don't want to do the work of networking, and sacrificing their immediate enjoyment for long term agenda. This is the kind of argument women make when they want a position to be given to them.

Other people that want to dominate will have to do the dirty work too. Have a course, stay the course even when losing.

People should put in the work and do politics. Not envy Fulani success.

Farooq, this is a poor article, it paints all Southerners as monolithic in their outlook..........but Fulani dominates the political landscape in the North.

The Fulani domination is feudal in orientation and directly linked to the Sokoto and Adamawa empire of the 1800s, all Emirs are of Fulani descent, the Sokoto Sultanate has always been ruled by a Fulani, majority of the Governors are Fulani and Nigeria has had 3 Fulani president and 1 Fulani prime minister no other ethnic group in the North can compete with Fulani political domination.

The most ardent supporters don't have to speak fulfulde to be Fulani Nationalist.

Tafawa Balewa was not Fulani. The 3 fulani presidents emerged through elections i.e Sagari, Yar'adua and Buhari. That is no fault of theirs.

Emotional children. DId fulani attacks stop Atiku from contesting presidential election against Buhari. Will the attacks stop another Fulani from contesting next election?

StaffofOrayan:
No we need to stop living in denial,
The type Tinubu and APC are shoving down our throats, the type you used to sell on this forum,
We need to wake up from this presidency cool aid and start thinking about preserving our race, there is no time, we are being played, it's so obvious it's annoying we fell for it twice, at least some of you did!

Is Tinubu your president? Is he the governor of the state? isn't it obvious the governor of that state is clueless?
in all this, you have no blame for that mumu governor, only calling out your enemies. If you go that route, you will regret it.

They have to wait till 2023 and vote their choice. This blackmail will not work.

Tinubuadvocate:
Will you shut up your mouth this is important issues. Anyway back to the issue this is not right time to shift blame on anyone we have to work In hands to hands to flush this bastard out from our lands.

What thing certain Buhari will never ordered the killing of anyone or open way for killer to kill who elected him. Buhari himself not happy with what is happening .

Did you read the article? How can you open the country to foreigners that are mostly battle-hardened when you don't even have the state power to effectively handle their excesses.

seunmsg:
So, putting it in the constitution that Muslim ladies should be allowed an unrestricted use of hijab will solve all our structural problems? Is this the kind of issue we should be discussing at the constitution amendment hearing?

Everybody should be free to bring his her own issue forward.

Born2conquer:
2023 at the corner, no amount of PR will change ogun state citizens mandate.
Obantoko to Adatan maddddt gan
Adata to Iberekodo, disaster
Elega to Ajitadun worst
Saje area
Not to talk of other areas, I sincerely wake up daily and i only see Dapo performance online!! And i wonder if it’s the same Ogun state in which i am or another Ogun state

Calm down. It's more important to provide conducive environment for businesses first.

The difference between GEJ and many of you is that GEJ knows the stakes, you don't.

maak400:

My brother, Yorubas are tired of this shit hole country too, we want Nigeria to divide, but just like mastertek said, there are more traitors and betrayers amongst Yorubas. These traitors are the problem Yoruba Nation is having, they are eating from the pot of corruption and so they want Yorubas to remain slaves to the Fulani caliphate. All the Yoruba politicians, Agberos, NURTW, Government workers, Tinubu urchins etc are the traitors that are in support of one Nigeria and betraying the agitation for Yoruba Nation. I assure all of them, if they allow their selfish interest to stop the disintegration of Nigeria, Yorubas will forever remain slaves to the Fulani caliphate.

What was Nigeria during the reigns of OBJ and GEJ, Fulani caliphate? Go and wait for your turn.

Officialgarri:
There's no president that will survive a single tenure in Nigeria after Obasanjo without the opposition playing extreme tactics

The attack on the government is just too much and even Jonathan would be happy he gave up that position.

Boko Haram are sponsored
Fulani herdsmen are sponsored
Then ESN/Ugm were sponsored
As if that wasn't enough, oodua started theirs
Sowore never gave up madness

President Muhammad Buhari has stepped on too many toes and they are fighting back.

Little wonder this nation never moved forward.

I can only compare this persecution to Al-Mustapha's testimony on Abacha's infamous government when he decided to seize power.

Self-inflicted though

PDP boys preparing for Osun governorship. Yeye. If they are serious, they should go and protest in Abia and Zamfara.

nograv:


we didnt want to go, as semi intelligent people were at the helm.

Can you honestly say the failed adminstration of the vegetable Buhari can compare to the former two presidents? Of course not.

If Hausa/Fulani want to rule, at least present competent leaders. Otherwise hand power to more capable Southerners, failing that let us go our separate ways..

Does this make sense to you? So if you have problem with a government, you'll ask for secession. Is this how you plan to run your Utopia country?

frankson1:

And I don't doubt you because of their love for the Fulani people.

They don't love the Fulani people, they fear them.
They don't hate Yoruba people, they despise Yoruba as been weaklings.

frankson1:


It's really shocking and I believe that the same people who are expressing their feelings and hatred for the President who is a Fulani man and everything Fulani are showing support for another Fulani man.

This is not shocking judging by antecedents. Azikiwe chose to work with Ahmadu Bello but the moment Akintola did the same all hell was let loose. This is exactly what is happening today. They worked with Shagari against Awolowo, they worked with Tofa against Abiola. The moment we decided to work with Buhari, they ran mad.

Na Yoruba people wey dey follow dem na im I pity.

Bet it. They will work with any Fulani man against any Yoruba man in 2023.

Coldsperm:

You are a Fulani terrorist. What are you doing here. Trying to cause disaffection between Yorubas and Igbos abi. Werey!!!

You are hypocrite. You pretend like you didn't what he responded to.

Fahdiga1:
The terrorist head slammers will never disappoint when it comes to stupidity. So they mean Christians in that region has no say

When are you going to stop killing Igbo muslims?

Is SW your region?

Our southern people are very funny. Begging the "North" to allow them go like the North is a sole decider of their destiny. Yeye.

Reading the nonsense from them, one would think it wasn't just some years ago that Obasanjo spent eight years and GEJ spent over five years as president. Where were the "let my people go" noisemakers then?

Cokahot:
I get irritated seeing hijab. Why are Nigerians muslim ladies daft. What can't u just cover your hair only. I get so disgusted when they pass by me,they stink and stink. Africa is madly dusty and humid and Nigerian sunlight temperature is wide and 500% hot enuf to give u malaria,fever,internal heat,bake cakes,burn a phone and cause explosion'the list is endless. Rather than allow us breathe oxygen,hijab here and there. So disgusting. Then we have the confused ones who are more ugly and still cover their face black down. Fron head to toe black with lambada black mask on. Wtf. Wicked heartless muslims

I hope you find a sniper. It's effective

Only Yar'adua was fair across board. Obasanjo was fair across regions but biased in religion. GEJ was unfair both in region and religion.

Buhari is performing balancing act, trying to correct previous imbalance.

This is what you get when you don't put these minorities in their place. Mschew

Our own at [/b] is that the 1999 constitution be completely scrapped and replaced with a new [b]citizens-led constitution.

We Rise!

Funny you, I guess those asking for Sharia are not citizens.

AkalaJ:
Ondo is a Yoruba state so the Arogbos should fall inline or they can relocate to Bayelsa (a majority ijaw state) if they're so offended by the decision. Reminds me of how some people (they know themselves) were wailing when Ambode and the Lagos State assembly passed a law on preservation of yoruba language in Lagos some years ago, even though similar laws had been passed in their own states without anyone raising an eyebrow.

Gbam.

Frontpage Lalasticlala,Mynd44,Dominique

A state that failed to provide portable water,sanitation,hospitals that can attend to former governors and provide employment for the largest number of agberos in Nigeria, wants to continue to spend billions on Ex-Governors, one of whom claimed he was richer than Osun state and known as a Bullion Van godfather and the other the Minister of Works.

Lagos representatives are speaking on behalf of Lagosians, who are you speaking for?

ahiboilandgas:
I call on Northern firms and interest to stop placing advert on a forum that is clearly tribalistic ,anti north .most moderators are bigots .try and create a topic about ipob and their nusaince watch it disspear. But a anti north topic will allow to fester .don't place advert on such forum .don't give the site more jet fuel to abuse , insult the North..we are very capable of creating a more decent forum.

Nairaland follows the money. Not particularly anti-north.

Its all about the benjamins

I came to read insults.

But people need to understand principle of Federalism. Today, you are shouting restructuring, devolution etc. Tomorrow, you are poke-nosing in other people's business especially people that don't even bother about your own lifestyle.

The campaign of calumny continues......

babaolofin:


They are the major problem of the South West. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and other radicals in the South should know that there are serious problems in the South West. Political and Religious dichotomy in Yoruba land is very serious.

Supreme Council for Sharia in Nigeria where Patanmi is the Deputy Secretary General have an AGENDA of implementing Sharia in Four States in South West using these people. We know it is impossible.

Sharia was in those states before you were born. kill yaself. He is even calling on Kanu to come and help him. Mumu man

NaijirianKing:
Please, there is no evidence that Fulani perpetuated this horrible crime. Let's not now use every incident to cast the Fulani in a bad light. Yoruba and Fulani are brothers and have lived in peace for centuries.

Fulani live in Yorubaland in Kwara, and Fulani live among Yoruba land in Oyo. Your divide and rule tactics are dead on arrival.

Corrected.
